I Am Where You Are

I lay and wonder

If I’m the jealous type

I also wonder

If you want to

Hold her tight

Do the answers

Make me feel alright

If I say yes

That makes me a jealous liar

 

Oh, let me hide my face in your chest

Tell me I’m a crazy waste of time

But I’m where your time is

But I’m where your mind is

 

I lay and wonder

If you’re the wandering type

I also wonder

If you want to hold her tight

Do the answers

Make me feel alright

If I say yes

Does it make me a jealous liar

 

Oh, let me hide my face in your chest

Tell me I’m a crazy waste of time

But I’m where your time is

But I’m where your mind is

 

I am where you are

I am where you are

Little lies, green eyes such a terrible fix

High stakes, mistakes, did I sign up for this

Don’t apologize for my suspicions

Just keep your hands on me

 

Oh, let me hide my face in your chest

Tell me I’m a crazy waste of time

But I’m where your time is

But I’m where your mind is

Nice

Godless fool, you’re such a tool

Spinning in your kiddie pool

Spinal tap, you’re very sick

Watch me get away with this

 

I may want you to find me

But I still wanna hide

I may want you to love me

But I won’t treat you nice

 

Fallen angel boy, my new shiny toy

Oh, you do bring me joy

When you squirm, and you learn

That if you touch the fire you’re bound to get burned

 

I may want you to find me

But I still wanna hide

I may want you to love me

But I won’t treat you nice

 

Your sweet tooth has a bite, I see

But don’t expect me to behave

I promise in the morning

I will remember your name

 

I may want you to find me

But I still wanna hide

I may want you to love me

But I won’t treat you nice

Tapeworm

Suck the pain right out of it

The wound will never heal

Suck the pain right out of it

You know they say you steal

 

They tipped you into the pool of wine

And laughed at you, the lush

They tipped you into the pool of wine

And complain that you’re a drunk

 

What kind of a mother is a tapeworm

What kind of a widow is a tapeworm

What kind of wife is a tapeworm

What kind of a woman is a tapeworm

 

Stutter in your misery

And they will say you lie

Stutter in your misery

But don’t let them see you cry

 

What kind of a mother is a tapeworm

What kind of a widow is a tapeworm

What kind of wife is a tapeworm

What kind of a woman is a tapeworm

 

You know they say you steal

You know they say you steal

But they took everything away

But they took everything away

But they took everything away

But they took everything away

 

What kind of a mother is a tapeworm

What kind of a widow is a tapeworm

What kind of wife is a tapeworm

What kind of a woman is a tapeworm

I never said a single word

I never said a single word

I never said a single word

I never said a single word

Vision

Dedicated to you

Like the brightest sky of blue

Greet you in the morning

With at least a tongue or two

During the day when you think of me

And I hope you do

I hope it’s with a smile

Cause that’s how I think of you

 

Every vision of love

Was illegitimate and wrong

Until I crawled to you, I never had enough

Every vision of love

Was illegitimate and sad

Until I crawled to you, true love I never had

Jewelry Box

The pearls in your mouth

That fell to the floor

The diamonds in your eyes

That don’t even fall anymore

 

Your his jewelry box

Isn’t that what he said

But all his other words and pain

It’s all left in your head

Your his jewelry box

 

The rubies from under your fingernails

The sapphires that come out when he comes in

I can’t understand your pain

Or why you wear the jeweled crown of being his

 

Your his jewelry box

Isn’t that what he said

But all his other words and pain

It’s all left in your head

Your his jewelry box

Color Blind

When you say you have everything

I hope you speak for yourself

Cause some of us are harder to satisfy

With some good wine and wealth

 

When you say you have every right

I hope you look around

Cause some of us are less than impressed

With your liberty and justice divine

 

When you say that you are color blind

I hope you know you have rose colored glasses

And that not everyone walks around

Getting their ass-kissed

 

Your experience, is one of equality

But you wouldn’t know real equality

If it fucked you til morning light

Your, experience is one of equality

But equal for you is not equal for all
